Delayed inflammation-associated corneal neovascularization in MMP-2-deficient mice

Corneal neovascularization is a significant, sight-threatening, complication of many ocular surface disorders, but its underlying molecular background is still not fully understood. In the present study, we analysed the expression and role of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), a proteolytic enzyme...
